註釋Sixty-five million years ago the Era of the Dinosaurs ended. Their extinction wasn't caused by their exploitation of natural resources. It wasn't caused because dinosaurs polluted the air with the gas of corn-fed cows or poisoned the water with nitrogen and phosphorous-rich poultry and hog effluent. They didn't plant crops in monocultures for economic gain, causing the loss of soil fertility and biodiversity. And they were certainly not aiding and abetting unsustainable food systems. No, they were hit by a rock. We all know that the sky is falling, Chicken Little. Our current agricultural models exploit natural resources and has led to an extinction crisis, a farm crisis, a food crisis, a health crisis, an economic crisis, a biodiversity crisis, and a pollution crisis—all of which ultimately culminates into one big human crisis. Our agricultural models aren't sustainable. A freight train is coming our way, and it's loaded with genetically modified corn, soy, and wheat. The question is, Can we slow this freight train or stop it altogether? In Eat Paleo—Save The World, Pendergrass outlines a paleo prescription for the planet. While researching standards for the eco-label Paleo Approved, she made some discoveries. By embracing various facets of the Paleolithic Era, people could not only drastically improve their health, but they could also help save the world.
